Yes they are, end of article.
And somehow I know many Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, Jews who can hear or even say Merry Christmas without curling up into the fetal position.
The problem with culture and society today is people applying rational thought to irrational behavior.

I'm telling you, it's bad. I was forced to sit through a lecture about how women are portrayed in video games...it was so stupid and the class discussion was essentially "men are awful oppressors".

Not at all but when Fox say something negative about a Democrat the entire left across the country goes insane because they don't get 100% of the media on their side, only 95%.quash said:riflebear said:

Plus, Don't watch that show anymore. Just posting for the casual observer and libs like you who for years tried to tell us there was no bias in Hollywood or the Media. These morons have no clue about the real collusion and are so uneducated it's why no one listens to Hollywood's advice.
Quash, I love you man but you are starting down the road of Cinque. Hop back on the path where things are discussed.quash said:riflebear said:

I discuss things in threads that are thoughtful. Several current ones.
When I get lied about? Not so much. And since no conservatives rein in the nonsense...

This exact same transformation happened to our niece as she went through college
She graduated unemployable, moved in with parents as she had no money, can't go to sleep unless high and won't seek employment
Graduated HS with head screwed on and feet grounded
State school destroyed her
Sad

I read it differently. This was a news story without spin. Maybe you remember that.

It was a meaningless news story. No one claimed it was his lifelong friend. But Slate beat the hell out of that strawman. Congrats to them on that fine piece of journalism!quash said:Jack Bauer said:

So are we mad at the dog, H. W. Bush, or those that said the dog liked H.W. Bush or vice versa? I need to understand the outrage here, because the strawman of "lifelong companion" was built and destroyed. We need to be enlightened by such hard hitting critical analysis.quash said:ATL Bear said:It was a meaningless news story. No one claimed it was his lifelong friend.
